Rangers have had a bid for Fares Ghedjemis turned down by Frosinone, according to respected Italian transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio.
The Serie A club rejected an offer worth around £8.6million (€10m).
They have made Ghedjemis a leading attacking target this summer after he enjoyed a sensational campaign in Serie B.
The highly-rated Algerian winger bagged 15 goals and three assists as his side secured promotion back to Italy’s top flight.
Celtic were also credited with making a £6 million (€7m) offer over the weekend, but Frosinone knocked back that proposal.
Ghedjemis is capable of playing across the front line but is most effective on the right wing.
He has already earned senior international recognition and featured for Algeria on the World Cup stage, further enhancing his growing reputation.
Rangers have already been active in the transfer market this summer, bringing in Dan Neil, Ivan Pandur, Ben Godfrey, Lawrence Shankland and Ross McCrorie.
The Gers have also signed Cammy Devlin, Vanja Dragojevic and Olwethu Makhanya as they look to wrestle the Scottish Premiership crown back from Celtic.
Adding another wide forward remains a priority, and Ghedjemis has emerged as one of the club’s standout targets following his prolific season in Italy.
With interest continuing to grow and rival clubs monitoring the situation closely, Rangers will need to move quickly to secure the sought-after attacker.
